Filmmaker Quentin Dupieux tore up the scene at Cannes this year with the deeply weird horror-comedy Rubber, which centered on a homicidal telekinetic tire named Robert. It’s then fitting that the marketing campaign for his next feature Wrong, is so outright bizarre. First came the enigmatic teaser trailer and a stream of strange screen grabs, revealing mere wisps of a plot—something about a man looking for his missing dog—and now we’ve got a new clip. But don’t expect it to answer any burning questions you may have about this odd auteur’s next venture. Or any questions at all.

Synopsis:

Dolph searches for his lost dog, but through encounters with a nympho pizza-delivery girl, a jogging neighbor seeking the absolute, and a mysterious righter of wrongs, he may eventually lose his mind… and his identity. Steve Little, William Fichtner,

Quentin Dupieux is back! No, I’m not sure who he is either but nevertheless I’m intrigued. His previous effort called Rubber – a film reported as being an exercise in ‘intellectual w**kery’ and B-movie tackyness – was well received and concerning as it did a murderous car tyre with homicidal intent how could it not be?

His follow up is Wrong, a film that so far has confounded all attempts by anyone to decipher precisely what’s going on. The Gibson-insane trailer released in November served to confuse everyone further but even so the film is already generating quite a cult following. Get ready to have your mind diddled:

The film stars William Fichtner, Alexis Dziena and Steve Little and centres around a man who is looking for his lost dog and along the way comes across a nympho pizza-delivery girl, a jogging neighbor seeking the absolute, and a mysterious righter of wrongs.

After perplexing and / or amusing the world with the tale of a psychotic, psychic tire on a rolling rampage of head-exploding revenge in Rubber, writer-director Quentin Dupieux returns with the tale of a lost dog in Wrong.If you're expecting this to be one of the most unusual lost dog stories ever told Dupieux's past would suggest that you are likely correct. And in just a couple weeks audiences at Sundance will find out.But Dupieux is a man who likes to tease and he's doing that today with a new clip from the picture, one that features star Jack Plotnick receiving a mysterious warning. William Fichtner and Steve Little also star. Check the clip below.

Quentin Dupieux aka musician Mr. Oizo, has released a new clip from his follow-up to Rubber, Wrong, which tells of a man’s search for his lost dog and how his interactions with vpeople, including a nymphomaniac pizza delivery girl, shape his identity and attitude towards life.

So far, everything seems so right about Quentin Dupieux's "Wrong." The director behind the bonkers "Rubber" has his follow-up ready to go, with a premiere at Sundance just a few weeks away. On the heels of the awesome trailer, we now have our first scene from the movie, and as expected, Dupieux is keeping the mysteries of the flick under wraps for now.
Starring Jack Plotnick, William Fichtner, Alexis Dziena and Steve Little, the story centers around a man who is looking for his lost dog and along the way comes across a nympho pizza delivery girl, a jogging neighbor and a mysterious righter of wrongs. And, it seems, Master Chang. Yep, we still have no idea what to really expect but coming from the guy who made a movie about a killer tire, it's beyond whatever we could think up or presume.
Anyway, check out the clip below.

The International Film Festival Rotterdam has just announced that its co-production market, CineMart, "has selected 36 film projects (from 465 entries) which will be presented to approximately 850 potential co-financiers." In the press release, CineMart manager Jacobine van der Vloed emphasizes this year's "focus, more than before, on the alliance between the Iffr, the Hubert Bals Fund and the CineMart" and makes special mention of the Boost! initiative, a collaboration with the Hubert Bals Fund and Binger Filmlab.

Here's a first look at some of the projects highlighted in the release:

The Sundance Film Festival is coming in January and recently announced a list of feature films and documentaries that will be premiering at the event. Two of them are Quentin Dupieux's "Wrong" and Kirby Dick's "The Invisible War." Today, we have trailers for both. Check them out below. Wrong: About a man named Dolph (Plotnick) who is searching for his lost dog, but constantly keeps running into strange characters, including "a nympho pizza-delivery girl, a jogging neighbor seeking the absolute, and a mysterious righter of wrongs." The new movie is directed by Quentin Dupieux, the man behind last year "Rubber," about a killer tire. It stars William Fichtner and Steve Little. The Invisible War: An investigative documentary about one of our country's most shameful and best kept secrets: the epidemic of rape within our Us military. Focusing on the powerfully emotional stories of several young women,

Quentin Dupieux aka musician Mr. Oizo, has followed up his superb film Rubber with an equally as baffling new movie which is apparently Wrong (Ok, so its not wrong, that’s just the title). The film apparently tells of a man’s search for his lost dog and how his interactions with vpeople, including a nymphomaniac pizza delivery girl, shape his identity and attitude towards life.

Directed by Quentin Dupieux, the man behind this years sure-fire cult classic Rubber, Wrong tells of a man’s search for his lost dog and how his interactions with various people, including a nymphomaniac pizza delivery girl, shape his identity and attitude towards life.

By now many of you have had ample opportunity to check out Rubber, the movie from Quentin Dupieux that hit last year. Yeah, the one about the sentient tire that develops psychic powers and uses them to blow the heads off animals and people. I liked Rubber a lot -- thought it was funny and entertaining in a simple, almost too-self aware way -- and have been looking forward to his next movie.
Dupieux has been at work on a relatively secretive follow-up, called Wrong. The movie is in the Sundance 2012 lineup, as announced not long ago [1], competing in the World Cinema program. To go along with that formal announcement, here's the teaser trailer for Wrong.
I'll be honest: just going off this footage I have no idea what the hell is going on in this movie. But it has William Fichtner sporting facial scars and something like a rattail

This is not wrong. Remember that sentient killer tire film Rubber? The crazy mind behind that wacky flick, Quentin Dupieux aka Mr. Oizo, has already shot and is ready to unveil his latest bit of cinema, titled Wrong. The film was just accepted into the World Competition section at Sundance 2012, meaning I'm sure it'll be the talk of the fest once everyone gets a taste of how wrong this is (we'll be making puns like that all through next year, I'm sure). The cast includes William Fichtner, Steve Little, Jack Plotnick, Eric Judor and Alexis Dziena, but other than that I have no idea what's going on (tip via The Playlist). Enjoy!

Could “Why?” be the “No Reason” of 2012. I loooooooooved Rubber- by the way, I totally didn’t mean to reference this film twice today – as it was one of my favorites of 2010. I’m happy to say that we didn’t have to wait long for Dupieux’s follow up, Wrong, as the Sundance Film Festival announced their 2012 films of competition yesterday. With that announcement it looks like Mr. Oizo (Dupieux) has uploaded a trailer on Vimeo.

Some of you horror fans might remember a disturbing Cronenbergian film called In My Skin written, directed and acted by Marina de Van back from 2002. While she has visited our genre since with Don’t Look Back in 2009, I still haven’t had a chance to watch it. With two horror films under her belt, why not add a new one?

Cineuropa reports that she will begin a six week production schedule on her new film Dark Touch, a film which reminds me a bit of Quentin Dupieux’s Rubber. Check out the synopsis below:

Dark Touch opens one evening, in the middle of the countryside in an isolated house that comes to life, as if gripped by madness: objects and furniture fly into a rage against the inhabitants. Eleven-year-old Niamh is the only survivor of the bloody carnage caused by the furniture: her parents and her little brother are dead.

The Sundance Film Festival has unveiled its 2012 competition lineup, announcing that "110 feature-length films were selected, representing 31 countries and 44 first-time filmmakers, including 26 in competition. These films were selected from 4,042 feature-length film submissions composed of 2,059 Us and 1,983 international feature-length films. 88 films at the Festival will be world premieres…. On Day One, the Festival will screen one narrative film and one documentary from both the Us and World Cinema competitions, as well as one shorts program."

One of the most divisive movies from last year (at least within the Sound On Sight staff), was Quentin Dupieux’s Rubber, a coming of age tale about a killer tire with telepathic powers, who goes on a killing spree. Simon got himself into hot water when he called the film smug and directly insulted Dupieux on episode 23 of the Sordid Cinema podcast. I was a little more positive with my review from the Fantasia Film Festival describing it as, “a twisted hybrid of trash and art. A preposterous slasher film that would make a great double bill with Van Sant’s Gerry”.

Well, Dupieux is back once again and headed to Sundance with a brand new film titled Wrong. A few details have emerged. According to The Playlist, the film centers around a man who is looking for his lost dog and along the way comes across “a nympho pizza-delivery girl,

Writer/director Quentin Dupeiux made some noise on the 2010 festival circuit when he unleashed Rubber, alternately wowing and perplexing the varied audiences of Cannes, Toronto, and Fantastic Fest. The hyper-meta movie about a tire who kills people is right in my wheelhouse of movies that talk incessantly about their own structure; ultimately, it never quite connected, but marked Dupeiux as a filmmaker to watch.
The next Dupeiux film to watch for is Wrong, which will premiere as part of the World Cinema Dramatic Competition lineup at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. A teaser trailer has been posted online, and promises that Wrong---led by Jack Plotnick, Eric Judor, Alexis Dziena, Steve Little, and William Fichtner---will strive to out-strange Rubber. Watch for yourself after the jump.
Today is the day for short, bizarre teasers, following the first look at Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie. Tim and Eric are funnier, but as you'll see below,

The mind that brought you an angry, psychic tire now brings to you the tragic tale of a missing dog.Quentin Dupieux, best known to music fans as Mr Oizo, is surely one of the most unique and flat out strangest film talents in the world today and following on the success of Rubber - that'd be the psychic tire movie - he is now poised to launch his latest opus, simply titled Wrong, as part of the competition slate at Sundance.Are you ready for a slice of strange? The first teaser lurks below.

If you haven't already seen Rubber, do yourself a favor and head over to Netflix Instant and do yourself a favor. While I understand that it's likely not 0for everyone - for starters it's main character is a psychic tire named Robert - but the movie is so deliciously bizarre that it's worth watching at least once. I had the chance to see the film at AFI Fest last year and immediately found myself looking forward to writer/director Quentin Dupieux's next project. Today I learned that project is called Wrong and now we have the first teaser trailer for it.
Check it out below.
You may have noticed that this trailer is called a "Sundance Teaser." That's because Wrong was one of the many titles featured on the list of in-competition films at the Sundance Film Festival that was announced earlier today. Much like Rubber, the whole thing
